An all-out sprint does not challenge the main goal of an endurance-based training session in cycling.
Article in European journal of applied physiology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeThis study investigated the acute and delayed effects of a prolonged, moderate-intensity training session with or without an interspersed all-out exercise on exercise capacity, physiological responses, and perceptual responses.
methodsEighteen trained cyclists and triathletes (24.4 ± 2.6 years; 70.4 ± 8.5 kg;
resultsOverall mechanical energy expenditure (Mec-EE) was significantly higher in INT (p < 0.001). Met-EE measured at 30-min intervals did not change over time (p = 0.166), and RER decreased significantly in both trials (p < 0.001), with no differences between CON and INT. RPE increased significantly over time (p < 0.001), with no differences between conditions (p = 0.272). At POST, while end-test power (EP) remained unchanged, total work done (TWD) and work above EP (WEP) significantly decreased (p < 0.001) with no differences between conditions. At REC, TWD and WEP were significantly higher than at POST (p < 0.01) and not different from PRE (p = 1.0), with no differences between conditions.
conclusionA 3MAOT performed during an endurance-based training session did not alter metabolism or perceived exertion, nor did it affect delayed exercise capacity beyond the effect of the 3-h prolonged exercise itself. There appears to be no physiological basis for the strict exclusion of short, high-intensity bursts during endurance training.
